The Orchid

When I was young and handsome
And before that I’d got old,
I went out into the Garden
And was searching for a rose.

Out there in that Garden
Where flowers were exposed,
My eyes fell upon an orchid
Out there among the rose.

While walking among the flowers,
Was my imagination I suppose,
But it seemed to me that Orchid
Stood high above the rose.

I loved to be among the flowers
And no way would I repose,
‘Till I seized the opportunity
To pluck my Orchid from the rose.
